Villa: England can win World Cup

Spain striker David Villa believes England can win the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa™, and has likened them to his own side, who struggled to live up to expectations until their UEFA EURO 2008 triumph.

La Roja head into the tournament as favourites, while the Three Lions have stuttered in recent games, with yesterday's 3-0 win over Platinum Stars an underwhelming conclusion to their build-up.
